I’m always excited when Don’t Blink families choose a maternity session add on! Even better when Mom is up for any wardrobe ideas I bring to the table! I try to keep my maternity style natural, soft and magical… Olivia was all of this and more!
While vacationing in Northern Cali., I had the opportunity to spend an evening with my cousin Courtney at Diablo State Park. This place is MAGICAL at sunset and created the most stunning of backdrops for our time together! I am so excited for Matt & Courtney and absolutely cannot wait to meet Miss Hudson Rose!
Maternity is my favorite subject to photograph, hands down. I could think of no better way to spend a Sunday working than to be spending time with an expecting family! The Williams family is so excited to be welcoming another little lady to their home! Not long now… Bryn is expected in just one month! And I swear they are all straight out of a Gap family campaign! Such a lovely family inside & out! I am blessed to be telling their story this year. View their entire session here.
Lauren inquired a few months ago about a couples session. Only, she also had a little secret… They were expecting! But shhh don’t tell anyone! What made that secret even more exciting… TWINS! Obviously, the cat’s out of the bag now, so I just wanted to share the beauty of their blessing… from the beginning. I am so stoked to be part of their special journey!
As I write ,Ms Presleigh is preparing for her big debut! I can’t wait to meet her so I’m sure that Sam, Kyle and their family are beyond ready & excited! This post signifies the end of their maternity journey but the beginning of the rest of their lives as Mommy & Daddy! Having spent a lot of quality time with these two, I have it on good authority that Presleigh is one blessed little lady!
Please join me in saying a little prayer that Sam has a safe and easy delivery as she & Kyle welcome their tiny blessing into the world!
Once upon a time, I received an email from a client asking if I would “reveal” to them the gender of their baby… I got so excited that I jumped right out of my chair and jumped around like a crazy person (preserving my goober status no doubt)! Oh Sam & Kyle how I adore you! This was thus far the most exciting thing I’ve been able to participate in as a photographer! Thank you for the opportunity!
Congratulations on your Baby Girl! I hear they’re made of sugar & spice and everything nice 🙂

One of the great things about photographing a couples journey into parenthood is the amount of time I get to spend with each client. I get to know and share with them the subtle (& not so subtle) changes in all aspects of their relationship with both each other and the world. At Brooke & Cody’s second “journey session”, the changes were there… Brooke’s baby bump had grown significantly, while the addition of pink to her wardrobe announced to all “It’s a girl!” But perhaps the most pronounced (though not surprising) shift, was in Dad-to-be, Cody… Gone was the hesitancy present in session one , to be replaced by an awe and ease that quite frankly, had him glowing right along with Brooke. There were so many moments between the two that had me speechless…
As far as I know, every photographer has a favorite subject. For me it’s maternity… there’s something about the nervous excitement that surrounds the Mommy & Daddy to be. Whether it’s their very first or their fifth, the energy is amazing. All new love & anticipation…. sigh. I created a package just for this wonderful time in parents-to-be’s lives. I call it The Journey.
Samantha & Kyle… bless them, some how kept their news from the majority of their family & friends. They wanted to do something special to announce Baby Shivers arrival. I am proud to be apart of their journey…
